These practices will use a fully integrated Epic electronic health record, and likewise be focused on quality improvement and innovation in care delivery. Team based care will include embedded Pharm Ds, Patient Navigators, Behavioral Health Social Work, Primary Care Social Work, Community Health Workers, and an RN Care Coordinator with strong Advanced Practitioner partnerships. Collaboration with our Geriatricians and other critical subspecialists will be prioritized to help ensure value-based care to maximize quality, safety, and efficiency with reduced costs while delivering exceptional patient and team experience.
